I use it pretty much as is, except for the Work on Writing. We use Units of Study for writing, so we have a separate writing workshop. Other than that, I go through all the set-up lessons, modeling, practice, building stamina, etc. I love it. My kids love it. The paraprofessionals and other teachers that work in my room love it. I just got the CAFE book, and am reading that to get ready for the fall.
